• Act as a subject matter expert on operational implementation of new assays and enhancements to the existing suite of Tempus Genomic tests
• Identify and respond to project issues and risks; own and provide expedient follow through to action or resolution and communicate appropriately
• Report project statuses, quality metrics, and general feedback to team leadership
• Propose and build new workflows to solve problems and support operational needs
• Own stakeholder communication, expectations management, timelines, and the end-to-end project plan for a variety of projects with minimal supervision
• Other duties as assigned
